Incredible 171 year old Abandoned Historic Southern Mansion

This house is incredibly historic, built in 1850 for a wealthy family! Just 14 years later after it was built, a small civil war battle occurred in the front yard of this house. The family was forced to take shelter in the basement of the house as the battle went on outside. The battle resulted ina Union victory and the house was taken over as headquarters and even used as a field hospital. In the early 1900’s a First Lady visited the house and described it as absolutely beautiful. I’d share more specific details but would like to keep the house safe! Thank you for watching!

It is such a shame to let a historic home like this to just sit and deteriorate . It would be nice if it could be restored . It is part of this countries history .

[@reesedaniel5835]

But unfortunately certain factions that control our government, media and banking industry don't want us to know about our history. Because it was much better than what we have now (since this certain faction took over the FED in 1913). If interested in who these people are, just read Revelation 2:9 and 3:9.

We were in a tiny little town called Budingen, in an apartment found for us by a taxi driver named Frenchie who befriended my husband. Frenchie was friends with another taxi driver named Heinrich Kern who had the apartment available so Frenchie snagged it for us. Lol. It was in the second story of Mr. Kern’s garage and there was one other apartment up there lived in by a little German lady whose name was Frau Papa. We shared the bathroom on the landing with her. She crocheted, embroidered, etc. and she gave us several items during our stay that she had made. She was just wonderful. Still have them, of course, and they are treasured still.

Fantastic! Take me there on a warmer day. The cast iron door reminds me of the one in our basement when I was a kid living in New York it was our coal bin door. The guy would come with a truck and the truck had a long arm with a few bends, or elbows if you will. The guy grabbed and yanked the door swung it open and set the end inside. Now, in your video you showed the basement with a cement ramp. Ours had a ramp. Inside the door sat a big wheel barrow. It was filled and the guy closed the door and left a note rolled up in the handle of the door. I loved watching the process. I was in the basement one day hiding and the coal was let in and I turned black from the smoke. My mother was so mad at me for dirtying my clothes n hair.

The first floor porch was for summer sleeping if the house was too hot.

At 20:24 in the video, that "thing" is an early tin bath tub...What a wonderful house and in relatively good shape for how long it has been abandon...IT could still be saved if the right person came along in the near future.... It has all of its architectural elements intact except for the broken 2nd floor railing.....Thank yu for another amazing tour. .hopefully this amazing house gets saved!!! Keep healthy and safe

They're still working the land... lot of hay bales. Crying shame it's decaying! What's wrong with people?

[@tomrogers9467]

Some years with good rain the land produces more hay than is needed for the winter months. If not used, it will decay over the next summer.

I love the atmosphere in this place. Such a feeling of space & light & air. It feels like I could dance there.

That stove in the basement looks like my stove it’s a Kenmore.

From the 70's lol.

Probably the prettiest house I've ever seen! Thanks for sharing!

[@pamelahsmithsmith2366]

Sounds like this house has alot of history. I'm surprised an historic foundation has not tried to restore this beautiful house. We see alot of that down here near Charleston, S C.

We did just come out of a deep freeze in the mid-atlantic area , so I know this had to be cold Brrrrr 🌬🌬🌬🌬 ! Dont forget the old radiators 🤗🤗 Another mansion trashed again .😬😟

[@jeremiahallyn4603]

Yep, I'm in central Kentucky, and we were well below freezing for 12 days straight. There was a lot of snow and ice on the ground and trees the whole time too. Now it is warmer and rainy, lol.

Wow! What improved sound on this video. Very clear. Sounds great! I love to watch your videos. I feel like I have visited these old homes.

[@lindaondovcsik9714]

Fantastic!!! I love this house! It still has the original pocket doors.. lighting...fire places...it's all there! Most places like this get picked over! Please somebody...save and restore it!😁❤️😁 I think the little gray door was for milk deliveries... Every bit of this place is gorgeous! Can you imagine this place when it was new? Beautiful and grand! 😁❤️😁

The round metal thing in the last section of the upstairs was a portable bathtub probably used by the servants. They would stand or crouch with a pitcher of water and probably tallow soap, and wash the dust off before changing or sleeping. They usually kept them at the foot of the bed, but it could be brought outside to the stables, or the field, anywhere it was needed. They were very common at one time, but they're getting harder to find.
